When the referendum date was published, some council Democrats cried foul over the fact the polls were cut back to three loca tlOns and only open from noon to 8 '00 p.m , a usual practice on special referendum iSsues unless otherwise reo quested.

"We were led to believe It was a state law It was 12 :00 to 8 :00," said Pomposl who had jomed Carbone in requesting a town at· torney's ruling whether hours and loca tlOns could be expanded

Town Attorney Richard Krezel return· ed with a rulmg that Registrars Leslie Cotton and John Daley had already advertised the date and conditIOns of the referendum and that there were not enough time under state

statutes to make any changes

Townspeople Will cas t their votes at the follow-109 three loca tions .

Central Elementary School mis trict 1-3) Voters from District 2-2 (Usually votIng at Kelley SchooD and District 6·2) usually voting at Plantsville School) WIll also use thIS locatIon

Ha tton School <District 2-1 ) Will also

serve voters from District .i-I, i, 2, 3, 4 I usually voting at DePaolo Jr HIgh) , District 4-1 (usually votIng at Thalberg School), and District 5, 1 lusually voting at Redman's Hall)

'South End School (District 1-1 ) will also serve voters from District -12 (usually votmg at Kennedy Jr High), and District 6-1 (usually votIng at Strong School>.

Referendum turnouts traditionally attract a low percentage of registered voters, usual

'Iy about 1,200. but last August's polls attracted over 2.400 voters who rejected a proposed taxrelief program for the town's elderly

WhIle the large tUrnout was attributed to the hIgh level of pubhclty surrounding the controversial issue, thIS referendum lacks the organized efforts pro and con factions put into the Circuit-Breaker vote , suggestIng a return to low turnouts .

Each program currently takes a couple of weeks to package, a process of securIng guests , pre-program script writing and last 'mInute research to assure on-the-nose reportIng. a baSIC tenet Observer reporters take to heart . DIMauro explaIned

A styhzed set IS on the draWIng board to help give the program a dlstmction from other talk shows taped at the Dimension studIOS which utIlize a bluedraped background

InitIal plans to open WIth a mUSICal sound bed while credIts rolled down the screen had to be scra pped a t the last minute when It was discovered the studiO utilized a cassette deck rather than a turntable , makIng the well -tImed record the producers brought just so much excess baggage

A nother lesson learned at the ImtIal taPIng was to hmlt the number of speakers to

four , the number of mIcrophone jacks whIch lead into the mIxIng board A half hour before taptng. the compromIse of hangmg an overhead mIcrophone was made, provldmg a shghtly hollow sound . but prOVidIng a clear recordmg of everyone's statements

"We WIll improve our techmcal Quality as we go along," Mendela explatned, poInting out that a steady volunteer camera crew is still beIng sought.

"Once we develop a regular team, we can offer a professlonahsm which WIll rIval the networks." he saId Mendela had produced SImIlar programs In Bridgeport 10 the 70 's, Includmg a dally halfhour newscast which utilIzed IntervIews made 10 the fIeld. a techmQue he hopes to add to Ne wsmakers.

Don't forget referendum It spems hard to beheve many reSidents

Will forget there IS a referendum next Tuesday t May 7th I, but they Will There are many who have never rt'ad or heard of the Issue

To buIld or not to bUild an addition on Southington High School IS at ,takl'

The polls Will be open from noon until 8 p m There Will be three polhng locatIOns Central Elementary School. Hatton School and South End School

Historically, the turnout for referendums IS light Even though thiS Issue concerns something as Important as educatIOn. It probably won't send the voters to the polls In droves

Apathy reigns'

Arguments for and agamst the addition have been well-chronlcled

Educators feel the addltton IS a must And they carry some strong arguments In their favor The fact that the New England ASSOCiation of Scbools and Colleges highly recommends the proposed vocational ad· dltion and audltonum certamlv bodes well for those faVOring the whole ball of wax Smce these folks handle the accreditatIOn of high schools In New England. should they not give SHS accreditatIOn next time around, It would be an educatIOnal catastrophe

The new vocatIOnal wing would offer better training for those stuMnts Wishing to take up a trade after high school - and there are many who fall Into that catE'gory

SHS would thell be offering a well· rounded educatIOn to Its students

HaVing an audlturlum IS not a frill SHS has one 01 the mo,t IIIdglllflcent IIIU,,,

Again, It'S a matter of offenng facilities for everyone's Interest In educatIOn

SHS has the noteworthy honor of ha vlng just about the best sports faclhtles m the state OnE' look at the football and baseball complex Will make one agree With that statempnt And that's nice But how about the rest of the students" Those With an Intensp mterest m vocatIOnal trammg, and

• musIc Let's give them the best posslblt' facilities II Ith which to study and work on that which E'xcltes thE'm '

Yes. It'S gomg to cost a lot of money But most of It Will be relmbursablt' bv the statE' and 1000'ai govl'rnments '

And for those \ otlng, do remember qUE'stlOn number three must ha\(' a "~es" vote or tht' otht'r two questions won 't matter ThE' code updating aspect of the rl'fE'rendum IS a must

As for thosp who feel agamst the addition. It't your conscience be your judge But. for goodnt'ss sake. vott" Let 's have a good turnout for th" rE'ferendum

Out with the Crowd

by V.E. Takesian

SHS spring sports successful Southington High School's spring varsity

a thletlc teams generally compile better overall records than the fall and winter seasons

And this season is no exception, as four of the seven varsity squads could con· celvably capture titles in the Central Connecticut Conference Southern D,.,s,on

Prior to last Friday's contests, four of the most powerful teams, girls softball, boys baseball , boys track and boys golf were enjoying a commendable 19-1 record and three of them were undefeated The softball squad was H), baseball ~,golfers 3-{i and the mail' irackslers were .;- i.

There are few schoolboy spring athletic teams In the state which can even match the Southington High records in four varsity sports

Even the three other SHS spring athletic teams are holding their own, as the girls track squad was 2-2, girls tenrus at 2-1 and boys tennis, concentrating on a rebuilding program, was 1-3

All of which means that the overall records of the seven SHS spring teams as of Friday was a fantastic 24-7 for a winning percentage of nearly 90 percent, a mark that may not be equalled or surpassed by any high school this season in seven varsity athletic programs.

A continuance of the excellence the softball, baseball, track and golf teams have displayed for the remainder of the season will mandate a record cham· plOnshlp banquet at the high school by Athletic Coordinator Dom D'Angelo, who Will have to reward the Lady Knights basketball championship squad at the same time

D'Angelo said the Lady Knight hoopsters, who captured the Central Connecticut Conference Southern Division title With a 14-{) record, and compiled a 23-1 overall record , Will be honored at the same time of the spring championship teams.

"We didn't want to isolate the Lady Knight hoop squad because they were the only one of the five win~r. varsity teams here to win a league diVISion title. We decided to honor them with the spring s~uads all at the same time," added DAngelo

If the present trend is maintained, the banquet Will focus on five championship teams under one roof at the same time, which will defimtely surpass the party for the three championship fall athletic teams, cross country, girls soccer and football last fall

The cross country squad was undefeated 10 20 dual meets whlie the Blue Knight grldders were 10-{) dunng the regular season and 10-1 overall, beaten by Glastonbury for the state Class LL title and the girls soccer squad was 14-1.

Lookmg optimistically ahead, the number of players representing the five teams ,J.vuld· they ('~lItl" < th!'ir rlivision IE-agile II ties , wlil reach 160 athletes and lile banquet can be held at SHS.

Mammoth outing

BeSides the upcommg banquets, D'Angelo IS making plans to sponsor a mammoth outing for more than 400 a thletes representing t~e 1~ varsity sports squads in the community In late Mayor early June

ThiS policy was launched by D'Angelo when he was appointed athletic coordmator five years ago, after Joseph Fontana retired

The one-time school ye.ar outing has been rcward.mg for the hundreds of Blue Kmght and Lady Knight athletes because

it gives athletes an opportunity to conduct a reunion all at the same time.

When Fontana was directing the vanous varsity sports programs at the high school, awards banquets would be conducted at the conclusion of the fall, winter and spring athletic seasons which constituted many hours of preparation for each season Holding one outing during the school year is definitely more economical than sponsoring three banquets for the 19 varsity teams

Knights footall camp

The Southington r.rirl,ron rl\lh will agaIn assUJ.""ile aH financial obh~at1ons for prOViding lunches for the candlaates of the SHS gridiron candidates during the first week of practice when the coaching staff holds three practice SesSIOns dally during the week of August 26, head coach Dom D'Angelo said .

The Gridiron Club Will provide a large variety of menus to the candidates twice daily at the hIgh school when they are workmg out from 9 a .m to noon, 1'30 to 4 p.m ,and5t06:3Op.m

Club members WIll handle all the cooking duties for that week as they did a year ago. They were assisted by volunteers and everything worked out well last year. .

Last year was the first time since 1972 when the gridiron squad didn't go to camp for one week in preparation of the season Everything worked out well last August and it was decided to maintain the same schedule again during the final week 10 August The Gridiron Club saved several thousand dollars by holding pre~ason workouts at the high school The KJii'Sbl,s enjoyed their most productive season since 1972, when they compiled a 10-{) regular season record

D'Angelo also announced that the Blue Krught gridders will battle the Platt Panthers on Saturday, Nov . 2 at 1'30 p m at Ceppa Field 10 Meriden instead of Friday, Nov. 1 at 7: 30 p m He was notified of the schedule change by Platt High administrative officials several days ago As a result of the change the Blue Knights will play under the lights on Fnday, Sept. 13 at 7 p.m. against Holy Cross of Waterbury at Waterbury's MUnicipal Stadium In their opening game of the season, and on Friday, Oct. 18 at 7:30 p.m . at Muzzy Field in Bristol against Bristol Eastern in a Central Connecticut Conference Southern Division battle.

Crean appointed

Former state representative Gerald P. Crean Will be able to establish better guidelines in state professional boxing

Crean was appointed to the State Boxing Commission because of his considerable expertise in regulating boxing by State House Minority Leader Irving Stolberg (New Haven)

Crean was the co-sponsor of the original hill to establish the Boxing CommiSSIOn. In lS84, the Gcncr~l La'.l' ('l)mmlttf"f' ('011-

dueled a study of the matter and came to the decision that the sport needs to be regulated to ensure the safety of all participants. Furthermore, the study found that promotion of boxing would prove to be a benefit to the people of Connecticut

Stolberg added, "Crean was the prime mover of the bill and for this and many other reasons, I believe Gerry will make an excellent contribution to the CommiSSion ...

In accepting the prestigIOus appointment, Crean said, "I am honored and will serve the peOple of Connecticut to the best of my abtrities In my family, there is a long tradition of Involvement In sports and if there IS anything I can do to help the sport of boxmg, I am willing to do it."

Allen's slam follows exit of coach in dramatic victory

Ranked by the Hartford Courant as the second top 5choolboy baseball team in the state, Southmgton High School head baseball coach John Fontana said Tuesday that he is more mterested in !he Blue Knights winning the central Connecticut Conference Southern D,v,s,on championshlp thiS season

The Blue Kmghts (6-{) received 345 pomts during the poll involving 15 coaches, mcluding one first place vote surpassed by top-ranked Fairfield Prep t 9-{) which received 408 points

Mter enjoying an except�ona� air trip In Florida last week, the Blue Kmghts came from behind Monday afternoon to defeat con· ference rival NeWington 7-4 for their SiXth triumph on Chrts Allen's fIrst grand slam, hiS third roundtripper of (he season

The ejectIOn of Fontana from the game m the fourth mnmg apparently fired up the Blue Knights as they rallied for six runs 10 the fifth to maintain their unblemished record

Fontana said he com· plamed to the umpires that the ball hit by Newington's Brian Bmford down the third base hne was foul The umpIres said It was fair despite pleas by third baseman Allen, who said, "My glove was over the foul line and I couldn't reach It It had to be 19 mches foul ..

traIl WIth a Single and scored on Aaron Flonan's homer in the fifth to make the score 4-3 Dave Flood walked, Don Murphy and Mike Majeski came through with infield

singles to load the bases and Allen smashed a fastball over the left field fence for the grand slam.

Fontana, who was' watching the game outside the right field area, said he was confident the Knights would rebound after they were held hitless during the first three innings. The Knights scored a run in the fourth frame and exRloded in the big fifth.

'We were looking at too many strikes in the early innings," Fontana added.

Winning pitcher Peter Meade notched his fourth win of the season and was very sharp in the final three innings, allowing only one hit He gave up seven hits in as

• many innings and three of the four runs were earned by Newington.

Fontana also pointed out that the disputed grounder in the third inning was responsible for two tainted runs oii Meade

Continuing on the stat;? ratings, "the only time I will consider it Important is at the end of the season. I am concentrating on winning the divisional championship," Fontana emphasized.

The Blue Knights, who were scheduled to oppose Rockville Wednesday, will battle Bulkeley Friday at 3 p.m. at Joseph Fontana Field and will play Maloney in Meriden Monday and New Britain here on Wednesday at 4:30 pm They will (ace Bristol E.astern Fnday, May 10 at 7 p,m. at Muzzy Field in Bristol

"We ran mto an exceptional fine pitcher In Kiln Corbin, whose control kept our hitters off pace and held up to four hits." head coach

Joe Piazza Said It was her 8th WIO of the season for Central

Piazza pomted out that the Lady KmghL<; were not facmg the better teams In the state and were scoring at wlll because of a combmallon of Kmghts ' hits, With many errors and base on balls by opponents when the girls won theIr opemng seven games of the season

However, the Kmghts ChriS Wanner was also tough agamst Central on the firing hne, giVing up a run 10 the hrst mnmg on a walk. saCrifice and a smgle by Corbm

helper and I'd like to do that"

Even in Washington, Meccariello mingled with the "other side" His Republican ties enabled him to tour the White House with an insider.

"I had fnends on the Republican National Comittee," Meccarlello explained "Through them, 1 was able to get a tour With Nancy Reagan."

His national government service behind him for now, Meccariello IS concentrating his efforts on working at the state capitol. He sees this internship as an opportunity to build upon skills already learned.

"I'm finding my WashlOgton experience useful up here ID Connecticut because 1 also work with a lot of lobbyISts ID thiS office," Meccariello expiamed

"The entire politIcal

game is interesting, from the lobbying to the passage of policy," he added. "Senator Zinsser has let me write amendments to different bills at the state capitol, so I'm also learnlOg and dolOg a lot."

Meccarlello has hiS future plans strategically mapped out. H'd like to attain elected offICe in the years ahead, and would consider startlOg With a bid for town council.

"A lot of my friends, they don't think Southington IS the place to be," he said "I thIDk it is for me, at least now ID my life and for a few years down the road "

According to Meccariello, he'd hke to serve the town, then move right up the ladder to elected state office and then national offIce

Whle he's realistIC enough to know tha t plans change, Meccariello IS confident III hIS thlOklOg He's de-

termined to serve the people in some capacity.

He explained that If it's in elected office, his background should prepare him for some other type of munl(:ipal position.

Later thIS month, Meccariello will be awarded a Bachelor's Degree in Public Policy and Government from Eastern Connecticut State University.

His p'lans include the pOSSibility of going on for a Master's Degree in Public Administration, which could lead him to a Town Managerial position ID the state

Meccarlello IS the son of Mr and Mrs Gennaro Meccallello of Ber lin Street

Bob Cusano has thrown his hat into the rlOg, so to speak.

The Town Council Chair-man eame ilut pubhcally Tuesday to support the proposed high school addition, set for a May 7 referendum.

"There are people very Silently working against the project," Cusano said, explaining hiS statement of support was meant to counter those forces

On Tuesday, voters WIll be called on to deCide the fate of the addition Another $2.8 million needs to be approved III order for an auditOrium, vocational agriculture and vocatIOnal educa tlOn center to be added

"I'll be the first to Admit there are problems," Cusano said "I'm not happy with the archItect's cost estlmatlOg .but If it goes down to defeat May 7, We all lose ..

members also decided to send a message to the state about the roof at Thalberg School, a roof which they say IS long overdue for repairs

Repairs at Thalberg, set at $175,000, have been approved by the state But before work can be started, the building's fire code must be updated

According to School Superintendent John Pyne, the state

Department of Educa tion has a backlog

of work and an !f!spectlOn l1:!te has nol been set

"It's no one's fault except the people In Hartford aren't dOing anything to help us," saId KeVIn Kelley, school board chaIrman He recommended local legIslators be contacted to s~ If they could assIst In the p'roject

"We don t want to start any trouble, but we want to get something done," Kelley added

The roof 'repairs at Thalberg will be reimbursed at shghtly above 62 percent, but no funds ha ve yet been allocated for by the state bonding commIssIon

Board of Educa tlOn members are optimIstic

A little later on, Amory founded hIS Fund For Animals group and started on the speaking CirCUIt He admItted there were others before hIm and hIS group, but all were work 109 toward the same goal He stressed he wanted to found an orgamzatton that would "put cleats on httle old ladles 10 tenms shoes ..

near the seals unless you wanted to kill them," Amory said, noting his captain was an old Englishman who wanted to obey the law

Howey.ef. aft~r four days , the group had lost Its way The captam put 10 a call to the Coast Guard for a posItion check However, the Coast Guard would not help him Amory said that put spice into the old man's veneer On tha t voyage, the group ended up pamtmg the coats of more than 1,000, baby seals , makmg the hvmg animals useless as fur coats

Amory pointed out he IS aware of other groups usmg Violence to stop explOitation For example, the group that recently broke mto a research facility and

sprung all the am rna Is They caused $600,000 worth of damage Amory made no apologies .

Recently, the Fund For Ammals has been trying to save burros 10 the Grand Canyon The government gave the group about a month to get the animals out The fund obtain e d a hehcopter, and new the animals out Later, the burros would bt> placed 10 homes where they could hve out their natural hveS 10 peace In addltton, some burros will be comIng to Connecticut, and Will hI' hVlng m LItchfield Amory urged the crowd to adopt a wild burro

Amorv chasttzed the federaf government "The~ gIve us no help ," he said, notmg when the

bisons wander -off the government parks, the feds insist they have no money to round the animals up again " You'd think we'd want to make amends to thiS antmlt~'- -Amory said, referrmg to its near extmctlOn m the late 1800's . No, their answer IS to harvest, to kill the wanderers

After speakmg to the Southmgton crowd, Arts Council president Ca role Milano gave Amory a basket With an arts t-shlrt, a map of Southmgton, and some apples

Amorv then gave the 40 or so present COj>les of his book, Man Kind?, noting If their consCience bothers them, they can donate the $10 they would have spent to the Fund For Animals
